Trusted by Companies Nationwide
Canada's Media, Marketing & Communications Resume Writing Specialists
A media, marketing, or communications resume has to do something most resumes don't: work alongside a portfolio, without duplicating it or getting lost next to it. Hiring managers in this sector are screening for campaign results, audience growth, and measurable engagement, and for public relations professionals, the APR (Accredited in Public Relations) designation from the Canadian Public Relations Society carries real weight.
At Professionalresumes.ca, we build resumes around the actual numbers behind your creative and strategic work: engagement rate, audience reach, campaign ROI, media placements secured, readership or viewership grown. We position the APR designation accurately for communications professionals, and we know how to structure a resume so it complements a portfolio or writing samples rather than repeating them. For journalists moving into communications, or freelancers moving into agency or in-house roles, we know how to position that transition credibly.
Built for a Sector That Reads Portfolios and Resumes Together
A resume that ignores the fact that a hiring manager will also open your portfolio is a resume that wastes an opportunity. We build for both to work together.
In practice, that means:
- Accurate positioning of the APR designation and other sector-recognized communications credentials
- A resume structure that complements a portfolio or writing samples instead of repeating them
- Positioning built for how media companies, agencies, and in-house marketing teams actually screen candidates
Campaign Results Over Creative Adjectives
Every marketing resume says "creative and strategic thinker." What earns an interview is the specific campaign result behind it.
We build resumes around specifics like:
- Audience impact: engagement rate, follower or audience growth, readership or viewership
- Campaign performance: ROI, conversion rate, media placements secured, share of voice
- Brand and content impact: content output, brand awareness lift, launch results
A Real Conversation, Not a Form
The context behind a journalism-to-PR transition, or a freelance career built project to project, rarely comes through in a questionnaire.
Working directly with your writer means:
- Your campaign and creative impact get represented accurately, not generalized
- Positioning is built around the specific function, industry, and employer type you're targeting
- Nothing goes out the door until it reflects the creative or strategic work you've actually done
Built to Clear the System and Get Your Portfolio Opened
Larger media companies and agencies increasingly screen through ATS platforms before anyone opens your portfolio. Ours are built to clear that first, so the creative work gets seen.
Every resume is checked against the parsing logic used by major Canadian media, marketing, and agency employers, then reviewed again for whether a hiring manager would actually click through to your portfolio next.

FAQ’S
Your Questions, Answered
A marketing or communications resume has to prove campaign and audience impact through real numbers, engagement rate, reach, ROI, media placements, not creative adjectives. It also has to work well alongside a portfolio, since most hiring managers will look at both. We build resumes around exactly that balance.
This is one of the most common questions we help with. We structure your resume to complement your portfolio rather than repeat it, giving a hiring manager enough to want to click through, without cramming portfolio-level detail into the resume itself.
Yes. We position the Accredited in Public Relations (APR) designation from the Canadian Public Relations Society accurately, whether completed or in progress, and make sure it's represented the way communications hiring managers expect to see it.
Yes. This is a common and credible career path, and we know how to position journalism experience, writing under deadline, source relationships, editorial judgment, in a way that reads as directly relevant to communications and PR roles.

Absolutely. Whether you're targeting social media, copywriting, brand management, or PR, our team builds your resume around the specific metrics and terminology that function is screened for, rather than a generic marketing template.
